SemanticException Cannot find class "com.lucidworks.hadoop.hive.LWStorageHandler"

[deepdoradla]

I am trying to do the following and I am getting "FAILED: SemanticException Cannot find class 'com.lucidworks.hadoop.hive.LWStorageHandler'"

create external table IF NOT EXISTS movies_solr2(movieId INT, title STRING, genres STRING) STORED BY 'com.lucidworks.hadoop.hive.LWStorageHandler' LOCATION '/user/deep4u/solr/movielens_movies/' TBLPROPERTIES('solr.zkhost' = 'data1.cloudwick.com:2181,data2.cloudwick.com.com:2181,data3.cloudwick.com:2181/solr','solr.collection' = 'movies','solr.query' = '*:*');

The jar I am using is solr-hive-serde-3.0.0.jar. Is this a known problem with 3.0.0 jars?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

@deepdoradla Did you add the jar? From the hive prompt: ADD JAR solr-hive-serde-3.0.0.jar;.

Also, I don't believe we've ever tested this with IF NOT EXISTS, but I would think it would give a better error than it can't find the class if that was the problem.

@deepdoradla @Jaymin009 Please share the build commands that you follow.

The command: ./gradlew clean shadowJar --info creates a uber jar with all dependencies needed.

The exception:

 "FAILED: SemanticException Cannot find class 'com.lucidworks.hadoop.hive.LWStorageHandler'"

Usually means that the uber jar is missing some dependencies (build issues)

Hello I have the same issue, here are the commands I follow to build the Jar:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/lucidworks/hive-solr
gradlew clean shadowJar --info
